If you get to the end of the day and their not hurt, they've been fed & watered, and they have a nice comfy bed to be tucked up into, then you have done you're job for the day. Regardless of the screaming, tantrums, demanding attention seeking and whatever other little gems they have thrown at you that day.
We all have the days when we strive to be the perfect mother - you sit and read to them, you cook them a healthy full meal, you even get the playdough and paints out.
However we also all have those days when it's hard enough to get out of bed let alone do anything else.
That would be a day that you plonk them down infront of the tv and let them get on with it and then feel guily about it for the rest of the day.
In the words of Beryl Pfizer... ‘No matter what the critics say, it’s hard to believe that a television programme which keeps four children quiet for an hour can be all bad’.
That doesn't make you a bad mother just a survivour!
